Replying to @TaliaRinger
You're already an exceptional researcher. When the kids are young, there is the tension you highlight, but it gets easier when they get a bit older. In the meantime, enjoy them at their current age, because they grow up fast!
Whop has raised $200M in Series D funding at a $5.1B valuation, backed by @sequoia and @shopify.
It really feels like we are barely touching the tip of the iceberg in a market larger than anyone can imagine.
We first launched Whop as a better way for us to sell sneaker bots, one of the most niche types of desktop software out there.
Total TAM? Probably $20,000 per day.
Who cares, tiny market.
But, what people discounted is the idea that there were actually 70,000 other markets exactly like that one.
Beyond the investment itself, I am especially excited to welcome legendary silicon valley investor @dougleone to our board of directors. Doug and the sequoia team are nothing but a brilliant, resourceful, and principled group of people.
My co-founder Cameron and I started building on Shopify when we were 13 years old. Shopify is one of the most impactful all-in-one cloud ecosystems ever created; @tobi has pioneered modern entrepreneurship the way we know it and we are thrilled to have him in our corner.
We have a tenet at Whop to be the dumbest in the room and I am very grateful that this has recently become a lot easier.
We are focused on markets, scale economies, and progressive media. If that is up your alley, please message me directly.
The $200M raised will support our expansion as we build economic infrastructure for the next century, continuing on our mission of delivering everyone an income.

these mfers at @whop are fucking insane 😭
After I tweeted about payment processing, they DM me.
Instant video call. 4 people working on my store.
30 minutes later, they had replicated my Shopify store EXACTLY on Whop, with payments enabled.
2 hours later, ads were running.
Less than 24h later, already doing $10k/day.
tbh I was sleeping on Whop. thought it was just for clipping or whatever 💀
turns out you can vibe-code a fully branded store through their CLI, connect payments and scale without the usual Shopify app stack.
I opened 3 new Shopify stores yesterday.
Now I'm rebuilding all 3 on Whop with Claude.
this shit is actually crazy 😭
Fuck Shopify Payments. Fuck Stripe.
Doing $1M+/month and I still have to worry about payment processing instead of just scaling my businesses.
I'm tired of holding back growth just to avoid payment issues.
Need a G who can connect me with the right people to get multiple MIDs and scale properly.
If that's you or you know someone, hit my DMs 🤝

A Porsche was the car people with "taste" went to after Ferraris and Lamborghinis were saturated by the Miami course seller archetype.
With the GT3 RS becoming a "Tiktok car" and Porsches getting more common, those with "taste" are rotating away again (pic unrelated)

Naugatuck Valley Radiology Associates needed a new platform, with no tolerated downtime in the clinical workflows surrounding it.
@newlanternai built unified HL7 and DICOM routing layers around their existing applications and went live before their cutover date.

"The professionalism and expertise of your entire team was the foundation to the project's success — communications, follow-up, listening and open avenues for product enhancements are unsurpassed in my experience."

The Co-founder/CEO of Whop @cultured DM'd me about this post, asking what fees were being charged
Something was wrong with my account so he fixed everything and made it right
I'll now be using @whop as my preferred payment platform
Most small business owners use checks, cash, or platforms that they’ve used for years
@whop charges insane fees (more than Stripe) and they hold funds for 2-3 days
Ok so what ur gonna do is go to whop dot com and then ur gonna log in with ur email and okay yeah you’re gonna click create a business ok and then you pick a template and it should give you like. ideas. and then you put in like 50 bucks and start running ads. yeah it makes them for you. and then you get your first customer!
